Drivetrain
Fully resealed ZF 320Z w/ full shift detent pin service, new OEM S52 Luk DMF, new Sachs OEM clutch kit, new E36 pilot bearing. New E36 M3 guibo, E36 M3 driveshaft w/ new E30 CSB into E30 S3.73 LSD.
How's the ZF320 with the 3.73 work for ya? I have a 3.73 in my car now that I'm swapping an S52 with a ZF310 and I'm thinking the 3.73 will need to go for a 3.25 or 2.93.

It's a ton of fun in the city but the gearing is too high for highway driving. Going to get a S2.93 in there eventually.
I just finished my s52 swap yesterday and I'm running e36 trans with 3.25 diff. Tomorrow I'm picking up a 2.93 diff cause 3.25 is no fun on the freeway!

I carry a cheap pressure gauge in my glovebox with which to manually check my tire pressures, but I keep forgetting that in the USA glovebox space is sacred as it is reserved exclusively for the purpose of storing handguns.
